Reviewer: Laurie in New York

* I was incredibly impressed with this oatmeal. Not only was the flavor intensely superior to any other instant oatmeal I've had (and I've had a lot over my lifetime!), but the taste of the Irish oats was chewier and more substantial than other instant oatmeal. This was a huge treat and I just ordered three more boxes!

* This is another oatmeal product I absolutely LOVE! The cinnamon roll is probably my favorite flavor. The texture is good - no lumps and clumps. It mixes easily and thoroughly. As with some of the other oatmeal products on this site, I love the fact that it is sugar free. I order this regularly and eat it for breakfast daily. The portions are perfectly sized and you don't have to add a thing unless you really want to. I add my egg whites or unflavored protein powder to boost that up as I train heavily year round in intense heat. You will love this product!

* I have tried both the cinnamon roll and maple, and both are great! My favorite is the maple & brown sugar. I just top it with a little sugar-free Mrs. Butterworth's maple syrup (which you can get at any market) and it's perfect.

* Wow! I just received my Netrition order and had to try out the Irish Oatmeal Instant Sugar-free Maple and Brown Sugar. It was amazing--I loved it. This is the first Irish oatmeal I've tried. Previously I've only had Quaker's. The texture is much different and way better. I'll never go back. I've seen "Steel Cut" Irish Oatmeal at the grocery store and wondered about it in passing. Wish I'd tried it years ago. Of note: there are fewer carbs (15) in the Instant than in the regular or the quick cooking.

* While I am concerned about the comment from the reviewer who said the Apples and Cinnamon McCann's instant oatmeal (sugar free) raised his/her blood sugar more than regular oatmeal, in terms of convenience and taste, I really recommend these. I've tried the Maple and Brown sugar and the Apples and Cinnamon, and both are delicious.

I don't eat these as breakfasts alone. In fact, I usually eat these for dessert--when I want something creamy and sweet, but don't want to cave in to bad treats. This really satisfies my after-dinner dessert cravings on a lot of evenings.

* I love this oatmeal. It's much better than Quakers Low Sugar. The flavor is great, considering it's sugar free. If that is important to you (as it is to me) then this is the way to go! Great stuff. My fave is maple brown sugar.

* I love all of the McCann's oat products, but the individual packets of the instant McCann's Irish Oatmeal are convenient and tasty for breakfast when I am traveling. Hot tap water is sufficiently warm for mixing with the dry ingredients. Apples & Cinnamon is my favorite flavor.

* McCann's sugarfree Maple/Brown Sugar Oatmeal is the best oatmeal I have ever tasted. I eat it almost every day. I look forward to breakfast which I never ate before. I believe this product has had a major part in my losing 170 lb. and keeping it off for several years so far. You cannot find a better tasting product, a higher quality product and economical product anywhere!!

This review is specific to Irish Oatmeal, Instant Sugar-free Maple and Brown Sugar

* I have tried Cinnamon Roll and Maple Brown Sugar flavors and enjoyed them both. I am glad that there is a flavored sugar free oatmeal on the market since buying plain oatmeal and trying to "spice it up" doesn't always get the same result.
